Le bois de Paris (I)
The Prussians are advancing carefully through the wood of Paris, in the three columns prescribed by Bulow (See the previous post).
However the alarm is fired: a French batallion has been discovered blocking the pass of the central column. The Landwehr cavalry squadrons immediately charge home to screen the deployment of the infantry, but they are repulsed and fall back in disorder.
The Prussian infantry is deploying to overcome the menace, but it is a Landwehr unit and its performance is unknown. Meanwhile, the Prussian main column continues its march in haste, to exit the wood.
